  • MEDICAL IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND MEDICAL IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD
    Publication number: 20230102303
    Abstract: A medical image processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires medical images of multiple time phases. The processing circuitry generates a vascular territory image showing plural vascular territories included in the subject tissue. The processing circuitry sets a region of interest in the subject tissue. The processing circuitry sets at least two regions out of the vascular territories and an ischemia area in the region of interest based on the vascular territory image. The processing circuitry calculates a ratio of each of the at least two regions to the region of interest. The processing circuitry outputs information about the ratio.
